Pulse is one incident

I’m talking about the last 10 years

In the last 10 years, 74% of all attacks were motivated by white, rightwing extreamisim

The largest victims per capita are (in order) gays, jews, then muslims

You could go back to 2001 and it would look simmer

10 years is a great sample size

Global Terrorisim Database my dude

It list literally every single terrorist attack

9/11 was one group of guys who got lucky

If we removed all islamic extremism, 911 would still be the highest in terms if death toll

9/11 was an incredibly rare event

It’s impractical to allow that to define the risk of islamic attacks

Again, you are just looking at 1 year. That is called cherry picking

I’m talking about since 9/11

Either way

Either way the number of incidents weigh on the white right wing

The number of deaths are disproportionately islam yes, but that wasn’t the point i was making

I simply stated that 74% of terrorist attacks in the last 10 years were from white right wing extremists

Wether it be 10 years or since 9/11, the figures would look similar

Yes, because they are motivated by politics

Because that is literally the definition

If it was over something more petty they wouldn’t count it

I don’t know why you guys are fixated on death tolls. I’m simply stating the fact that 74% of insodences were from white extremists

Death toll is a separate issue

GTD my dude

The definition is politically motivated violence. In this case, murder.

If we included normal politically motivated violence then it would look more even

Death tolls are higher for Islam even post 9/11

If you study law, finding intention requires a process

@Bookworm https://www.start.umd.edu/gtd/

There’s also like, a billion studies on this

The difference between a terrorist attack and a national tragedy is media attention. Islamic extremists are generally the ones responsible for insodences that have abnormally high fatalities

To answer an earlier point, attempted murder counts as in incident so the MAGA bomber would be included.

The death toll wouldn’t rise because he didn’t actually kill anyone

If he was found guilty for attempted murder then he would be on the list

I’m simply informing you all on the realities of terrorisim

No that’s terrorisim

It’s not murder but it’s still terrorisim

Left wing antifa type murders are extremely rare

Yes. That’s a point worth mentioning. Many white extremists don’t get charged for terrorisim.

So we can say it’s at least 74%

Depending on why he’s punching him

If the black dude fucked his wife that would be normal assult

Not sure about plea deals

I said if it’s attempted murder with a political motivation, then it should count

I don’t actually know if that man in particular was found guilty of terrorisim.

So i guess we play the waiting game

We don’t know antifa’s full numbers but we also don’t know white supremacy full numbers either

Antifa attacks are more hit and run

GTD in particular is strictly based on the incidences regardless of whether or not the individual was caught. And they do normal violence and not murder exclusively. Death toll is still weighted to islamic sources despite that fact

Yes, they have tons if feilds to filter by

This was the recent church burning right?

Didn’t he paint a swastica on it with the words “vote trump.”

What article is this?

Fact: There is a direct correlation between a country’s life expectancy and it’s aethisim population.

Fact: There is also a correlation between the percentage of people who say religion has a meaningful impact on their lives and average GDP per capita with the US being the exception

The common theme of all religion is human immortality through the afterlife.

Fact: the common factor in all religions is a beginning to the universe, an end to the universe, a higher power and an afterlife.

Fact: There is a correlation between countries with high amounts of secure people and aethiest population. By secure I mean the odds of being born as someone who does not have to worry about their survival each day

Aethist attempt to corrilate IQ and aethisim but I don’t think that’s the case. I do not believe the issue is intellectual. It’s more likely to suggest that the issue of faith based thinking is existential

If your talking about Hinduism then it cycles, but there is still a clear origin story which signifies a “beginning”

I see someone mentioned China. They have a very long historical struggle with religious institutions. That is why they are only 7% religious(last i checked). Vietnam is also an exception because many people are actually religious (or at least superstitious) but they have to practice it in secret due to harsh state laws

China is the only one that doesn’t fit this pattern simply because of it’s exclusive history of religious conflict

I’m surprised the trade war isn’t getting much coverage

I am going to ask you to speculate. People often use mass shootings in the US to further their political agenda. Mass shootings in the US didn’t spike until 2011-12-ish. The country has had a problem with mental illness long before 2011. Guns were also very easy to obtain and widely owned long before 2012. The real question is, why 2011 specifically? Something must have happened? What event was so significant that it could trigger this explosion of mass shooting? No one knows because no one has looked. So i will ask you to speculate.

My personal theory is that the rise in food prices is causing this. The fact is that homicide scales almost perfectly with income inequality. Not just with individual states but with individual countries as a whole. People’s essential needs are being threatened so they look to revenge and renown to those who they perceive took it from them

We already know rising food prices caused the global revolution https://www.technologyreview.com/s/425019/the-cause-of-riots-and-the-price-of-food/

It wasn’t a steady rise, it was an explosion

Columbine was in 99

How are they being inflated?

Why did the media choose now to lie about them?

Is it because they need to compete with the internet?

But why 2011 in particular. Why not back in the 90’s or early 2000’s

Stanford Geopartial Center

Normally I’d get pissed but somehow im not surprised

If anything is going to take over Facebook it is going to be a service that offers decentralized content hosting

The problems we had with AOL are still replicated in Facebook

They documented the rise in mass shootings

You won’t receive that many adds if you have good browser extensions and you keep your feed clean. If everyone did what they were supposed to then they would lose an insane amount of cash

So I found out the rate isn’t rising for shootings but the death toll is. All due to the type of shooting. By definition, only 4 people need to die in order to qualify.

I’ll refer back to the revenge and renoune theory regarding increased food prices. The shooter wants to kill as many people as possible rather than just specific individuals.

Generally these type of shooters are very quite beta males who never lived up to high expectations for men so they attempt to reclaim that through this idea of war glory

Men used to be able to support a family and a comfortable living but that expectation is too high in today’s economy. Men who do live up to this expectation claim that their success is through merit but 99% have all the key advantages

I would argue that if we are to reduce these murders, we need to resolve income inequality and improve gender equality. For both men and women.

Mass shootings arn’t exclusive to schools.

I don’t think mass stabbings are a thing

If they are then they arn’t as common

4... I imagine

That’s the criteria for gun violence

Most homocides are with firearms

For reasons which should be obvious

Japan’s homocide rate is very low but their suicide rate is higher than any country

Suicide is at least concentual

The Middle East is looking at us like “3000 casualties? That’s cute.”

@Atkins that is true. The media normally only makes it into a public emergency if it happens in suburban white communities

Murder is very common in ghetto communities. More so for blacks but white ghettos are violent as well.

Studies have shown that adolescence who play games longer agree more strongly with sexist rhetoric.

In other-words, games cause sexism.
